The Dreams of Jacob (Evanston)

Sunday, May 21, 2017

Celebrate the conclusion of another sparkling season with an innovative blend of new and familiar works, from a popular classic to an exciting world premiere. In an intriguing combination of music and dance, Milhaud reimagines the Biblical tale of Jacob and his fantastic dreams. Chicago-based composer Sebastian Huydts, whose lyrical and accessible work captivated Rembrandt’s audiences in 2015, debuts a new trio inspired by symbolist poetry. Poulenc, a master of embodying Gallic wit and élan in music, captures the spirit of the flute, from sensuous to vivacious, in this pairing with piano. The afternoon concludes with a classic string trio by Beethoven.

We're about:

Meet others who love the classical music! Attend concerts and events at locations throughout Chicagoland!

We recently had a new leadership group more in. The first thing I did upon taking the Organizer role is choose a qualified and classical-savvy co-Organizer. The second thing I did was read the group reviews. I am going to endeavor to make every event I attend one in which the group is easy to find and there is social time planned before and/or after the concert.

Stay tuned, and please provide any ideas that come up! If you know of a new event, feel free to contact any organizer so they can designate an event coordinator and post it to the group.
